33 should be going to post for the 2009 Welsh National at Chepstow on 28th December with the Richard Lee trained Le Beau Bai heading the market with odds of 5/1 with Paddy Power.
Trained by Richard Lee, Le Beau Bai has been the subject of a huge gamble since hosing up in the Freebets.co.uk Betting handicap at this course at the beginning of the month in very heavy ground and he would appear that he will have similar conditions to repeat that success in this. Le Beau Bai is a very consistent sort who has four wins from his last six starts and comes to Chepstow at the top of his game. There is little doubt that he can stay the trip and with plenty of stable confidence behind him he is sure to run a big race.
Next in the betting is the Paul Nicholls trained, The Tother One who is another who seems to have all the right credentials to go close in the race. Last seen when second a length behind The Package in a listed handicap at Cheltenham a couple of weeks ago, this 8 year old is ready to visit the winners enclosure for his all conquering stable and like Le Beau Bai, has been heavily backed in the last few days and is now a best price of 6/1 with William Hill to bring another big race home to the Ditcheat Stables.

Irish trainer, Willie Mullins has withdrawn all of his six runners from the race, which has resulted in 2006 Welsh National winner Halcon Genarlardais being promoted in the betting to third with odds of 12/1 also with William Hill. This Alan King stayer was also second behind Miko De Beauchene in the 2007 Welsh National and was not too badly disgraced when a distant fourth last time out behind Kauto Star and Imperial Commander in the Betfair Chase.
Racing fans will know that the Welsh National is often a good pointer for the Aintree Grand National in April. 2009 Grand National winner Mon Mome was favourite at one time for the 2008 Welsh National but the race has produced three winners over recent years, Earth Summit (1998), Bindaree (2003) and Silver Birch (2004).
